    Covert Panasonic Plasma TNPH0831 "A" board into AB variant

    Good morning,

    I have a perfect 2010 Panasonic TC-P46S2 FHD plasma TV, short only a working A board.

    1) Got hard to turn on, requiring unplugging and waiting 30s.
    2) Currently on clicking the power button, relay click for about 4s, then clicks off. One slow constant red blink (3s?)

    I interpret that as a failed A board, however the TNPH0831AB is unfortunately completely out of stock everywhere and has been for years.

    DMM'ing about seems to show the power supplies as good, the power supplies on the board OK and no shorted SMT ceramics or blown electrolytic caps.

    There are a lot of other variants of the TNPH0831 about, and I am planning to get one of the TC-P50S2 variants (larger screen, same panel and feature set).

    Looks like its identical from the service manuals except for the EEPROM + FLASH chips. I can solder them across.

    Any advice? I found this thread already which suggests this method from tw2005 here:

    ic8502 tvrr166ags ic tcp42u2,tcp46s2,tcp50s2,tcp54s2 This is good, the 56pin is the same, that leaves just the easy ones to swap!

    Note 58" is different

    ic8503 tvrr168aas ic 46s2, 8 pin $10.04

    ic9001 tvrr208abs ic 46s2, 8 pin $6.64

    ic9304 tvrr216abs 46s2, 8 pin $8.64

    None of the other ICs are unique to the 46S2 on that board.

      Panasonic plasma TX-P42ST50 - 6 blinks
      by jm1234
      Hi,
      anyone able to provide the service manual for old plasma Panasonic TX-P42ST50E?
      It turns off almost immediately (0~5 seconds after pressing the on/off button) and starts flashing the red diode 6 times.
      I disconnected the left-hand side board (SC?, both the ribbon cable and the power cable to it) and also another ribbon going to bottom left board. Then the led signal is 8 flashes. According to service guide to another Panasonic plasma it would mean the left-hand side board is faulty. But I'm not sure it 100% applies to my model.
      I checked that board for any obvious faults...

      Panasonic ZT60 plasma tv with strange behavior and 8 blink code
      by cloo
      I recently got my hands on a 60" Panasonic P60ZT60 plasma tv (european model) that has some strange issues along with an 8 blink code.
      It know this tv is getting old but it was once considered one of the best plasmas ever made, and i think it is still holds on to that even by todays standards.


      So, long story short. When i first got the tv it had a very bright washed out picture with very raised blacks in all picture modes and i couldn't find the cause in the picture setting menus.
      After doing a factory reset this problem was gone and the picture was back to...

      Panasonic Plasma TH-50PZ85U No screen No blinks on red power light
      by Alicat
      Hello,

      Stopped by this site trying to fix my parents Panasonic Plasma TV.

      Model number is TH-50PZ85U

      Power comes on and the red power light stays on solid.

      Did a few checks like hold the power button on for 60 seconds, hold the - Volume while holding the menu button, no luck, still@ blank grey screen as the screen lights up very vague.

      I also hear a few clicks.

      I also think my parents said there was a thunderstorm and the TV failed after that.

      Section 6 in the service manual talks about power and no screen,...

      Panasonic P42S30 Plasma - Pink sparkles
      by Lintesir
      My parents' Panasonic P42S30 died recently, and they asked me to have a look at it. I was able to identify the SN-board as the culprit, as it was shorted. After removing Q401, Q402, Q421 and Q422 the short was gone, so I replaced these components and that got the TV working again. However, when testing the tv a bit, I noticed quite bad pinkish sparkles on some colors. For instance the greyish bar on this forum seems to trigger it quite badly. I made a fullscreen test picture with only that color, with the below result.

      There is about a 5cm high region at the top without any sparkles,...
